उत्तर
Here,
T = 300K
SVP = 3300 Pa at 300K
RH = 20%
⇒ `(P)/(SVP) = 0.2`
⇒ `P = 0.2 xx SVP = 0.2 xx 3300 = 660`
V = 50 `"m"^3`
M = 18 g
Now ,
PV = nRT
⇒ `PV = m/MRT`
⇒ `660 xx 50 = m/18 xx 8.3 xx 300`
⇒ m = 238.55 g≈238 g

Figure shows a cylindrical tube with adiabatic walls and fitted with a diathermic separator. The separator can be slid in the tube by an external mechanism. An ideal gas is injected into the two sides at equal pressures and equal temperatures. The separator remains in equilibrium at the middle. It is now slid to a position where it divides the tube in the ratio of 1:3. Find the ratio of the pressures in the two parts of the vessel.

A barometer correctly reads the atmospheric pressure as 76 cm of mercury. Water droplets are slowly introduced into the barometer tube by a dropper.
